THE CUSTOMS REPORT.

Saturday, June .19, 1926.

The 7990i‘!- Of the Special Com- mittee which has been investigat- 111g the administration of the De- partment of Customs and Excise will go down in history as Present- ing to the world a period in which Departmental inefficiency and Governmental indifference made a’ joke of the few and its functions.

The ‘country will be fortunate if it is not termed Departmental culp- ability with Governmental conniv- ance. The committee is gener- ously lenient in attributing the con- ditions which have prevailed to slow degeneracy in efficiency ac- cumulated over a number of years. It may he so, but the evidence points with damning clarity to dis- Tﬂsartl 0f official responsibility on so many occasions that the Depart. ment is made to appear to often as little less than a clearing-house for political adventure and personal ambitions.’

When the committee, after hold- ing 115 sittings and hearing 224 witnesses, announces that all the matters referred to have not been completely reviewed. but based up- on those which it has been able to cover, regards it as its duty to censure a former Minister, recom-

, mends the retirement of three high officials and the dismissal oi! six important officers in one district, that proceedings be taken against twenty-seven firms and companies to recover sums of money owing to the Crown, that two outstanding cases be referred to the Attorney General of Quebec for action, and then finds it necessary to recom- mend continued investigations in various directions, it appears as’ though the basic fault lies deep- e-r than “lack of continuous and vigorous control oi‘. subordinates by the headquarters staff at Ott- awa."

'It must he a dark day in the life of a Federal Administration when a Department so essential to the economic welfare of the country be-

THE DUTY OF PARLIAMENT.

Tuesday, June 22. 1926.

It is useless for the Government —notwithstanding the legacy of looseness and misdemeanors which it inherited from its predecessors —‘to expect to escape direct re- sponsibility in the judgment of the public generally for much 0f the wrongdoing brought to light by the investigation of the administration of the Department of Customs and Excise. There is‘ evidence that certain conditions were the acclim- ulation of time, passed 0n, from previous Administrations. But these conditions have been perpetuated —and developed alarmingly- under the present Administration, and long after they had been cali- ed to the attention of the Govern- mont in persistent appeals from a group of business men, nothing bad been done to remedy them.

comes a plsything for important members of its personnel, the toy of political intriguers, and an ob- ject of supreme contempt by smugglers, rum-runners, and crooks in general. Existence of these conditions is brought out in the wvidence. They may be called conditions which are the accumula- tion of time, a legacy in part of vnriaua—ndminiltfmfdlis, ithe fruits of habits created in haphazard days. The‘ committee believes they are of comparatively recent Origin. intensified by tho addition to the Department's duties of the Cnlioﬂtion of sales and income tax- on and by the adoption of the Vol- stead Act in. tho United States. Tilt-mo things cannot serve as ex- (ruiios. A Government is respons- ibio for its own acts alone. It can-i 710i throw the blame on the pastl iii‘ it enlarged ihc duties of a D03 purtmont. business sense should’ have seen that these duties were PPOIJBriy taken care of. The fact that these conditions have come to Dass is a bitter dose for a confid- ing public, for which the Govern- Ttient must. assume full responsibil-

y_ .

The country has suffered in rev- enue to amounts unknown, but which must be huge; business has sustained losses reaching into mil- lions because the country has lack- ed an Administration with suffi- cient appreciation of its duty and lreenncss of perception to organ- izo or reorganize this Department along lines ‘which would ensure honesty and efficiency in service to itself and the public. What is “time. some of its own appointees have brought. this discredit upon

It is to be hoped that Parliament when it meets today will rise to the fullness of its own respcusibil-| ity in (lealiug with the report of, the investigating committee, This‘ is no matter upon which party strategists have ‘any right to play politics. Nor is it a business in which the whitewash brush has any place. Apart from the facts, that the country has suffered in’ revenue to an appalling extent and legitimate business has sustained losses reaching into millions, there is an even more important moral issue involved. ‘Departmental in- efficiency and Governmental indiff- erence have made a joke of the law;

Mr. Gill's statement came in the discussion of a report presented by I-‘red G. Smith claims agent, of Detroit, biicir, on crossing condi-

lions in that state. There, on the Gramd Tflillh western lines of the Canadian National system, a stop and flashlight signal warning the ilpproachirlg nlotoriet of the simul- tunvoils approach of a train to the crossing has been installed in many eases and has been found both safe and economical. With the increasing motor traffic in the state of Michigan where over a million and a quarter automobiles arc licensed this year, the work of a. flagmau at a railway crossing has IIOPUIYiO most hazardous, as a result. three flagmen have been in- jurorl and arc now in hospital and a yurdmastor was so seriously hurt ihnt ho lost one leg through being crashed into by the motor- ists whose lives they worn trying in stave.

"At one crosslnﬂ so protected autoists broke down the gates on an average of three times a week. At that particular crossing, since we installed tho (zombined stop and flashlight warn- ing. not a single accident has oc- cured."

(i. J. Cooper also of Detroit, stat- ed that this system of crossing protection bad boon enthusiastic- ally received by the American itallway Association and had been made the standard for lines east of Chicago. in the American cities tho motorist. had become educated to driving control by moans of (bushing lights and whore the nil-cots worn wide enough those signals were placed on an island at. the centre. oi‘ tho street. or at tho right. build curb otherwise. \\'it.h this signal in operation there was no excuse for motorists being caught on crossings. in the course of the (iiscirssion -.\ir. Gill referred to statistics showing tho comparative speed of autos at railway crossings. “If u. motor- ist boats n. fast. train over a cross- lug six times in one day, he will have saved perhaps seven ends" he said, "whereas if he coeds in doing it five times and loses out on the sixth, he will have probably sacrificed the re- mainder of his life."

The failure of audible signals under present day conditions when the noise of motors together with the fact that popie were driving in closed cars rendered even locomotive hells largely in-

During the morning session Sir Henry W. Thornton. chairman and president of the Canadian National system attended for a few min- utes thanklrig the claims agents for their work during the past year and reminding them that their work was just as important to the success or the company as his own or any oi the other offic- ers. "The basis of your settle- ments with the public must be justice, and it must be of a nature to leave behind a feeling that the party has been fairly treated. In that way friendships for the com- pany are cemented" said sir Henry. The meetings are con- tinuing during today.

DONDON, June 25.—~I.ady Beav- erbrook will entertain the thirty- eight New Brunswick High School teachers whose traveling scholar- ships. awarded by Lord Denver brook, bring them to England next month. The party will sail on July 1, when their vacation begins, and they will only return in time to re- sume their duties at the beginning of the following term.

The teachers will be accompan- ied by Mir. Justice Crocket, a Can- adian Judge of the King's Bench. who acted as selector for the schol- arships, and by Dr. Cox, of the Uni- versity of New Brunswick.

‘lady Beavenbrook. who will be in charge of the party throughout their stay, has arranged an extend- ed tour not only in England. but in Scotland and Ireland a well.

The object of the tour is to give the viaitma a ﬁrst-hand insight in- to the political. educational and social life of Great Britain and Ireland, and so to strengthen the ties between the Dominion and the Mother Country through a class who will mould the thought of the rising generation in Canada.
